What are automation policies?

Policies are rules that contain multiple condition and action sets. They can be triggered to take a variety of actions on alerts or incidents in your environment. Cloud Pak for AIOps provides several preset policies that define the core behavior of event and alert processing. Policies can also be generated by AI analytics or created by users.

How can I work with policies?

In this view, you'll see all policies that are preset, created by you and your team, or generated by AI analytics. You can enable or disable these policies, create new ones, and edit existing user policies. Batch exporting and importing is also supported. To see which policies might be failing and need attention, you can review the Status column. For additional details, click in any policy row to display the side panel.

Where should I begin?

If you're ready to create a policy, click the Create policy button. You can choose from a set of templates to help you get started. You can also check out more details about policies by reading through the product documentation.
